Environment
The concept of limited natural resources is given much consideration by the
Group during product development.
The design choices, the entire production cycle up to packaging, transport,
and all stages of the life of the fixtures placed on the market, including their
recycling, aim to reduce potential environmental impacts.
The Group uses components and materials to save energy and respect the
environment.
Intelligent control technologies are used, such as sensors that detect daylight
and movement, software and electronic components for controlling products
and their sources to obtain significant energy savings.
Furthermore, specially designed high-performance reflectors or lenses allow
for optimal distribution of light where it is needed, avoiding waste and loss.
The combination of efficient ballasts, optoelectronic light sources, intelligent
sensors and highly complex reflectors results in durable, energy-efficient
products with respect for the environment.
Ecodesign
New European directives on ecodesign and energy labelling of
light sources for more sustainable lighting.
The European Community has set essential objectives that will lead
to significant energy savings by 2030 and an increasingly diminished
environmental impact by introducing the new UE 2019/2020 SRL (Ecodesign)
and UE 2019/2015 ELR (Energy Labelling) regulations.
SRL REGULATION (Single Light Regulation UE 2019/2020
Ecodesign)
The Group designs and develops its lighting fixtures following the regulations,
focusing on the environment and energy sustainability.
All the information required by the regulation is available on the free access
website and product instruction sheets.
ELR REGULATION (Energy Labelling Regulation UE 2019/2015)
The company guarantees the registration of the light fixtures of its design and
development in the EPREL database following the regulations.
Interseroh recycling
The Group has concluded a contract with INTERSEROH for the proper
recording, sorting and recycling of transport packaging. This ensures that
packaging at our clients’ premises is recorded by INTERSEROH partners, the
packaging material is recycled and all requirements of the packaging directive
are fulfilled.
RoHS compliant
The company is registereded as a manufacturer with the German waste
electricalic equipment register EAR, in implementation of Europeanop
Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronicon Equipment (WEEE),
under the following number: WEEE-Reg. No. DE 27756601 All electric and
electronic equipment brought into circulation by the company is marked with
the “crossed-out dustbin” symbol with a bar denoting the limit date for putting
into circulation.
To our knowledge, our products contain no substances in concentrations or
applications the putting into circulation of which in products is forbidden in
accordance with the applicable requirements of Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHS).
An environmental officer constantly examines further improvements, and
constant staff training courses round off the complete catalogue of measures.
Founding member of ECOLIGHT
The company is a member of the ECOLIGHT consortium for the recycling
of lighting fixtures. ECOLIGHT brings together over 1,700 companies and
ensures the management and disposal of WEEE, exhausted batteries and
accumulators, and end-of-life photovoltaic modules.
Our company has always been focused on important issues such as
environmental protection, energy saving and the well-being of people. The
design and development of our products are inspired by these themes every
day.
A new collaboration starts with Agenzia CasaClima, an independent public
certification body in South Tyrol (I), which managed to create its own
certification protocol not only for residential construction, but also in the
field of public lighting, wineries, schools, factories and much more. Over the
years, it has become a protocol national, also known in Austria and Germany.
PERFORMANCE iN LIGHTING becomes the partner in the field of artificial
lighting, providing training and consultancy regarding energy savings, smart
lighting management, regulations, well-being and visual comfort.
